The Ray-Ban Meta Gen 2 will last you longer and can take 3K video.
Meta’s Connect conference is underway, and the company just launched the sequel to its surprisingly successful Ray-Ban smart glasses.
Meta is improving on some of the most annoying downsides of its very popular smart glasses. The highlight is the major upgrade to the battery life, which can now reach up to 8 hours on a single charge. That’s double what the first generation of Meta’s smart glasses was capable of.
Along with the larger battery, the glasses also support faster charging. You’ll need to put them in their case for about 20 minutes to get them to 50%. The case itself now holds 48 hours, up from 32 hours on the original model.
The other major improvement is in the video capturing. The new glasses support video with up to 3K resolution, which can be up to 3 minutes long. That’s an upgrade from the 30-second 1080p clips on the original model.
